Answer:

if acceleration of car decreasing then the velocity of car must increase but the rate of increase will be slower than initial rate

Explanation:

As we know that instantaneous acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity

so we will have

a = \frac{dv}{dt}

so acceleration gives us an idea about the rate by which velocity is increasing

now if the acceleration of a car is decreasing with time then it shows that the rate by which velocity of car is increasing with time is decreasing but still the car velocity is going up.

So we can say that if acceleration of car decreasing then the velocity of car must increase but the rate of increase will be slower than initial rate

By definition, acceleration is the change in velocity per change of time. As time passes by, the time increases in value. So, when the acceleration is decreasing while the time is increasing, then that means that the change of velocity is also decreasing with time. So, optimally, the initial velocity and the velocity at any time are very relatively close to each other,

Geologists know the past temperature of the planet based on rock and fossil evidence. Why do you think it is difficult to determ
Basile [38]

Answer:

I think it is difficult to determine what has caused climate change in the distant past because it must have been a long time ago so geologists can't carry out different experiments and figure out what gases the planet had conjured, so geologists can only make predictions based off the evidence they currently have from what the planet looked like before. The planet must have changed over the years, therefore the climate has also changed in the future, so they cannot work with how the planet looked in the past.

A uniform plank 8.00 m in length with mass 50.0 kg is supported at two points located 1.00 m and 5.00 m, respectively, from the
andreev551 [17]

To solve the problem it is necessary to use Newton's second law and statistical equilibrium equations.

According to Newton's second law we have to

F = mg

where,

m= mass

g = gravitational acceleration

For the balance to break, there must be a mass M located at the right end.

We will define the mass m as the mass of the body, located in an equidistant center of the corners equal to 4m.

In this way, applying the static equilibrium equations, we have to sum up torques at point B,

\sum \tau = 0

Regarding the forces we have,

3Mg-1mg=0

Re-arrange to find M,

M = \frac{m}{3}

M = \frac{50}{3}

M = 16.67Kg

Therefore the maximum additional mass you could place on the right hand end of the plank and have the plank still be at rest is 16.67Kg
